Musical dissident. Jesu Java. #mandolin #mandocello #tenorguitar #songwriter - songs of dissidence, prayer, confession and love.

Thanks to everyone who hung out and listened to me play some tunes - that was fun! Let’s do it again! #grownostr #pledchain #nostrmusicians #mountainmandolinband

Playing some songs - or trying to on here - tune in let me know if your listening- cheers. #grownostr #plebchain #mountainmandolinband #mandolin #songwriter #country #punk #antiamericana https://nostrnests.com/pav0r3

In my last post I sorta implied that there isn’t a music link on my website there is- it just allows you to preview it on Spotify. This is the same link. IT’s everything “we/I’ve” ever released and then some in one package. More info about the album the physical release, etc at my website mountainmandolin.band

Updates to the old web address. Music is all available to stream wherever you stream - physical CDs will be available for sale Friday. Only did a short run. 2 disc package 38 songs 20 dollars.

How serious are the folks I know about this only zapping thing? I haven’t zapped anything but it seems as though there are folks who want to #onlyzap and it’s kinda a neat idea- but I admittedly haven’t zapped anyone yet… 😅

Anyway- got after some turkeys this morning with my crossbow. No shots were fired except to unload the bolt when I got home. Hope everyone is having a rad day. #grownostr #plebchain #mountainmandolinband #onlyzapping #onlyzapped #onlyzap ?

Golden hour glow. Playing guitar yesterday practicing older songs for the show on Friday. Haven’t played much guitar in a while. But some of the old songs are still better suited for guitar though I have rearranged a few for mando instruments. Solo shows are going to feature me playing #mandolin, #octavemando, #mandocello, #electric mandolin and #mandocello, tenor #banjo and #guitar. Old songs. New songs. Some covers. Thinking of doing a few songs livestreaming tonight or tomorrow to practice for the Friday show. Not sure which platform- perhaps #nests on nostr? How soon in advance does one need to plan something like that or like a twitter space can I just start one? #grownostr #plebchain #mountainmandolinband

Origin clothing out of Maine. USA made, merino wool, it’s a great turkey hunting shirt.

Of course I misunderstood a comment and made a dumb emoji response - sorry y’all still figuring out how to not trip over myself lol

Any suggestions for how a musician ought to operate here? Country/punk/ on mandolins and guitars- splitting time between Nashville and Idaho, Jack of all trades (fire/EMS/corrections/theater/contractor) with lots of songs and stories- singing about everything from God to love to the state of the American empire. Any suggestions for how to engage would be appreciated. Cheers.

Is it bad form to share a video link from instagram here? Is there a better way to share video content through #nostr? Upcoming shows in Idaho and Nashville hit me up if you in either place! Gonna be chasing turkeys from Idaho to Nashville second half May- if anyone want to have a free concert- in exchange for a place to hunt hit me up. Okay- that’s all for now, uh also #grownostr
